Background
CHRIMSON (Single Human Resources) is a now defunct project for the Department for Constitutional Affairs originally designed to build a single Human Resources system for the Department, bringing together employee records from existing systems in one place.
Stage 1
The main objective of Stage 1 the Single HR System (SHRS) was to migrate around 12,000 employees from the 42 legacy magistrates Courts systems into a single HR system to enable HR to view, process and report on all of its employees from a single system and data base source. This constituted Stage 1 of the process and was completed successfully by 19 June 2006. The project changed name from SHRS to CHRIMSON.
Stage 2
The project subsequently moved into Stage 2 which involved the migration of the data for existing DCA employees (approximately 15,000) from the current CHRIS system to CHRIMSON. The go-live date for this was 4 December 2006. Due to the delay to Pay and Grading implementation, this was disengaged from Stage 2 and any changes to CHRIMSON were introduced as part of the Pay and Grading payroll solution.
Stage 3
It was decided not to proceed with phase 3 of CHRIMSON; the phase that would have included MA data.
